            The TAX Poem             


 At first I thought this was funny...then I realized the awful truth of it.
 Be sure to read all the way to the end!

 

 Tax his land,
 Tax his bed,

 Tax the table

 At which he's fed.

 
 Tax his tractor,

 Tax his mule,

 Teach him taxes

 Are the rule.

 
 Tax his work,

 Tax his pay,

 He works for peanuts

 Anyway!
 

  

 Tax his cow,
 Tax his goat,

 Tax his pants,

 Tax his coat.
 Tax his ties,

 Tax his shirt,

 Tax his work,

 Tax his dirt.

 
 Tax his tobacco,

 Tax his drink,

 Tax him if he

 Tries to think.

 
 Tax his cigars,

 Tax his beers,

 If he cries

 Tax his tears.

 
 Tax his car,

 Tax his gas,

 Find other ways

 To tax his ass.

 
 Tax all he has
 Then let him know

 That you won't be done

 Till he has no dough.

 
 When he screams and hollers
;
 Then tax him some more,
 Tax him til
 He's good and sore.
 
 Then tax his coffin,
 Tax his grave,
 Tax the sod in
 Which he's laid.
 
 Put these words
 Upon his tomb,
 'Taxes drove me

 To my doom...'
 
 When he's gone,
 Do not relax,
 Its time to apply
 The inheritance tax.

 STILL THINK THIS IS FUNNY?
 
 Not one of these taxes existed 100 years ago, and our nation
 Was one of the most prosperous in the world.
 
 We had absolutely no national debt, had a  large middleclass,  
 And Mom stayed home to raise the kids.
 
 What in the hell happened? Can you spell 'politicians? '
